Tottenham have progressed in talks to loan 18-year-old centre-back Luka Vuskovic to Hamburg, with a season-long deal and no options expected before Monday's deadline. The club are also seeking to move Yves Bissouma to Galatasaray. Bissouma, out of contract next summer, has fallen to the bottom of the central midfield pecking order after repeated timekeeping issues. Vuskovic joined Spurs this summer after a move agreed in September 2023 and produced a goal and an assist in the pre-season win at Reading before his minutes diminished. Hamburg have monitored him and see him behind Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven and Kevin Danso. Other centre-back options include Radu Dragusin, Kota Takai and Ben Davies, though Takai has battled a heel injury.
Tottenham have made progress in talks over the loan of Luka Vuskovic to Hamburg, with the expectation being that a season-long deal with no options will be finalised before Monday's deadline. The London club are also looking to move Yves Bissouma to Galatasaray. The 28-year-old, who is out of contract next summer, has dropped to the bottom of the central midfield pecking order, having frustrated Thomas Frank with his timekeeping.
Vuskovic joined Spurs this summer, albeit his move from Hajduk Split was agreed in September 2023, and announced his arrival with a goal and an assist in the pre-season win at Reading. The 18-year-old centre-half played in the next friendly against Wycombe before his minutes dried up; he has been an unused substitute since the season began. Hamburg, who won promotion back into the Bundesliga last season, have monitored Vuskovic throughout the summer.
Hamburg, who won promotion back into the Bundesliga last season, have monitored Vuskovic throughout the summer and can see he is behind Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven and Kevin Danso in Frank's thinking. The head coach also has Radu Dragusin, who is fighting back from an anterior cruciate ligament rupture sustained in late January, and the new signing Kota Takai as options at centre-half, not to mention Ben Davies. Takai has not yet featured as he has battled a heel injury.
